The 20th October 2016 is SONM's 2nd anniversary! Join us in our birthday celebrations as we reflect back on two whole years as our own standalone community, and look forward to what is coming next...

Two years ago to the day SONM opened its doors for the first time. Back then the future of the forum and viability of retaining our community was a great unknown, and while our future has often been the subject of debate we can take pride in knowing that we have survived for two whole years, still retaining an active and dedicated (and unarguably unique) userbase.

As much as we have to celebrate, this is also the perfect opportunity to look to the future, and I am very pleased to announce our newest affiliation with ScreenGurus. More than simply being listed amongst our friends, our hope is to develop and grow a long lasting partnership between our two sites, offering more great content and providing our community with a fantastic outlet for its skill and creativity. You can read more about ScreenGurus and our affiliation here!

We've also taken on board much of the feedback we have received in recent months regarding SONM, and are pleased to announce that the site will be benefiting from an upgrade and facelift in the coming weeks, bringing notifications and dynamic, mobile-friendly layouts amongst other improvements, while still retaining the classic look and feel that SONM can be recognised by. Stay tuned for more news on that shortly!

Was really cool to see you guys band together to create the spiritual successor of the old Forums. Even tho we're a small community, I really like it that way, always have. Here's to many more years of our daily shenanigans. Props to all the mods that take time out of their day looking after this place!

<Kaeetayel> Go for a team entirely composed of Eeveelutions
<Princess> that's effort
<Princess> I need to buy the stones/go to rocks/make them happy/touch Eevee
<Kaeetayel> The last one doesn't sound too bad

Wow, hard to think it was 2 years ago we were setting this place up and wondering how it would go. Going to be honest and say I didn't expect us to make it this far.

All credit must of course go to OR, who funds this place, as well as arranging forum upgrades, affiliations and everything else that needs doing. The rest of us mods do nothing in comparison (or in some cases nothing outright).
